Most student areas in Manchester gets hit with over subscription whether it be Cable or Adsl as quite simply you get a higher percentage of downloaders on the same contention..

As for advertised speeds thats where a lot of people get confused, Cable has not distance from exchange limitation unlike Adsl, where as people don't realise that a high contention/higher downloading user effects the speed as well..
